Great, enjoyable, lovely safari
We had a very enjoyable, lovely and great three-day-camping safari with Mega Adventures to Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Excellent food prepared by own cook. All camping equipment provided by the company. Only thing that we wouldn't recommend in general is the cratercrim-walk of Ngorongoro, with a Masaai ranger as guide. Halfway he started asking for a gift or money, which made us quite uncomfortable. But other than that we had the time of our lives with Mega Adventures!

A day at Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area
Booking our trip with Mega Adventures was easy, after having already climbed Kilimanjaro with them, we were confident they would give us a good deal for a trip to Ngorongoro and we were not disappointed.
Booking was completed face-to-face at our hostel, but we had discussed several options with Mohamed previously via telephone and electronic messaging.
We were picked up on time from our hostel, and after a quick stop to collect our lunches from a local caterer we started the long drive West to Ngorongoro. Our driver, and guide Ali kept us informed about our progress as well as telling us what we might hope to see when we arrived.
Upon arrival to the conservation area, entry formalities were completed quickly, and our descent into the park was swift in order to maximise the time spent on the crater floor. The crater was so vast, beyond anything I could have predicted. It was genuinely amazing to see the tiny dots we had viewed from above transformed into zebras, wildebeest, hyenas, warthogs and many more.
Ali took the time to explain each animal to us: numbers in the park, species, habits etc, and drove slowly and responsibly through the area, maximising our viewing potential of the rarer beasts. After some radio chatter he took us to a spot where we could see the critically endangered black rhino. After lunch (a very tasty lunch I might add) by the hippo pool, we searched for lions, which Ali found pretty quickly, a pride sleeping through the afternoon heat. We managed a good 4 hours inside the crater before heading out (seeing elephants as we passed) and returning to Moshi. Although the journey was long and traffic was dense, it didn't detract from the epic day we had at Ngorongoro with Mega Adventures.

It was an awesome experience.
Communications: The communication with our guide, Ally, was good.
Food: Food is awesome. Masawe really knows how to cook! We were totally well fed during the trip. We could never finish the food because of the huge portion (which is good). Only thing that I believe needs to be improved is that there should be a lamp during dinner at the Serengeti camp.
Vehicle: Decent.
Service: Excellent!
Highlight: Definitely the Ngorongoro Crater walking safari. It was S E N S A T I O N A L.

Amazing experience, great guides!
I did a three day safaris trip twice with Mega Adventures Travel. The prices were very good and I had an amazing experience both times! They had good vehicles and very friendly English speaking guides. I would definitely recommend booking with them.

Perfect Adventure
I went on Safari two times with Mega Adventures. The first time was in January and we went to Tagangire NP, Serengeti NP and the Ngorongoro-Crater in a 4-Day-Safari. Dodo found 3 other People to share the car to make the price per person better.
Our Guide, Sayid, was great and also our Chef Masawe. I have to say, that the Food was better than expected; fresh fruits, Pizza, Fish...
We saw all the big 5, uncountable other animals and the beautiful landscape. The Campsites were really clean, expect the one in the Serengeti, but thats not the fault of Mega Adventures, and the tents were really good. From the campsite at Ngorongoro Crater we had an awesome view into the Crater.
The Second Time i went to Tarangire and Lake Manyara. Everything was perfect again an we had 2 Perfect days.
So you see, i went on Safari with Mega Adventures two times...i think, this is review enough. Best Price, nice Guide, Chef and a very good Communication with Dodo :)

Mega Safari with Mega Adventures
I lived in Tanzania for a year as a volunteer and during that time I wanted explore Tanzania's beautiful nature as well. And therefore a good safari company is essential. Friends suggested me Mega Adventures and I never regretted to have done a nine-day safari, a climb of Mt Meru and a climb of the Kilimanjaro with their help.
I have done the together with my family (6 persons altogether) and we were able to highly customise our safari for our needs. Mega Adventures was always willing to fulfil our wishes but also gave as good advices to make the trip as special as possible. We travelled through the whole northern circuit. We started in the Tarangire NP, passed Lake Natron the next day to reach the Serengeti through the backdoor. After that we spend some time at the Ngorongoro crater as well at its surrounding craters (Empakai, Olmoti). On the last day we finished the trip at the Lake Manyara NP. During the whole safari we were only camping which was a great experience especially because we often chose private campsites over public ones which I can highly recommend as they are far more remote and you get the true wilderness feeling. Also our driver and guide Abu was very knowledgeable person and shared very interesting details about the wildlife in Tanzania with us. On top of that the car was in a very good condition and Abu really understands how to handle such a beast.
My climbs of the Mt. Meru and Mt. Kilimanjaro were led by a very experienced guide who has reached the peak dozens and dozens of times. He always watched out for us to make our experience enjoyable. The gear I hired for the tour was also in a very good condition.
In conclusion I can highly recommend Mega Adventures as your Tour operator. Customisable safaris, experienced guides and fair prices made my trips very special and truly unforgettable.

We had very good communications, service, all about safari we spent a great time with our driver, Saaidi and cook Mwassari. We had four days full of exciting adventures , we saw "the big five" :-), and a wonderful nature!
Only the serengeti campsite , this place is very dirty and rates all over the place.
But all other places are very beautiful!
Thank you for the great time!

The best safari we ever did.
Early March is a perfect time to go on Safari in the Serengeti. We saw a lot of animals and birds. It's a good location to see the "Big Five" and many other african animals. The guide we had was very professional and really nice, he always gave us enough time to make pictures and to enjoy the wilderness. He told us a lot about the nature and wildlife and was able to answer all of our questions. The car was in a good condition and it was enough space for all of us to enjoy the view and taking pictures. The accommodations were very good, nice people, great food and clean rooms. If we go on Safari in Tansania again, we would choose Mega Adventures for sure.
Absolutely perfect!
It were really nice days with good service and very nice guide and cook!
